ATLAS-2M Trial Summary

This trial is designed to compare the antiviral activity and safety of two regimens of an injectable combination of cabotegravir and rilpivirine given every 8 weeks or every 4 weeks, in adults living with HIV who are currently on a stable antiretroviral regimen.

Who is the study for?
Adults with HIV-1 who have maintained a viral load under 50 copies/mL and been on stable antiretroviral therapy for at least 6 months. Participants must understand the study commitments and be likely to complete them, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, and use effective contraception if of reproductive potential. Those with certain health conditions or taking specific medications are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness of long-acting injections of Cabotegravir plus Rilpivirine given every two months compared to every month in controlling HIV-1. It includes adults previously treated with standard care or those already receiving these drugs monthly, assessing safety over a year.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include allergic reactions to the medication components, injection site reactions such as pain or swelling, liver problems indicated by blood tests, potential interactions with other drugs leading to heart issues (like abnormal rhythms), and general symptoms like fatigue.

ATLAS-2M Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Subjects in group 2 receiving study treatment once in 8 weeksExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Group 2 will consist of subjects currently receiving CAB LA + RPV LA Q4W in ATLAS study. Subjects in Group 2 will be randomized to receive CAB LA plus RPV LA Q8W via IM route.
Group II: Subjects in group 2 receiving study treatment once in 4 weeksExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Group 2 will consist of subjects currently receiving CAB LA + RPV LA Q4W in ATLAS study. Subjects in Group 2 will be randomized to continue CAB LA plus RPV LA Q4W administration via IM route.
Group III: Subjects in group 1 receiving study treatment once in 8 weeksExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
Group 1 will consist of subjects randomized from current ART SOC therapy. Subjects in group 1 will be randomized to receive CAB LA plus RPV LA Q8W via IM route. All subjects will receive oral therapy with CAB 30 mg + RPV 25 mg once daily prior to randomization.
Group IV: Subjects in group 1 receiving study treatment once in 4 weeksExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
Group 1 will consist of subjects randomized from current ART SOC therapy. Subjects in group 1 will be randomized to receive CAB LA plus RPV LA Q4W via intramuscular (IM) route. All subjects will receive oral therapy with CAB 30 mg + RPV 25 mg once daily prior to randomization.
